Publisher Description

Kalu climbed high into a tree seeking the perfect leaf to roll into a pipe.... Softening one end in his mouth, he pressed down with his teeth to flatten the tube and blew. The sound, sweet and clear, rode the wind, snaking through the tree and down into the village.

Set in the small Indian town of Hastinapore, we meet Kalu: just a young boy, without any family, living on the streets. As he plays his music, he doesn't realise there is a man resting against the trunk listening. And so Kalu and the healer meet, and Kalu's life is changed forever.

"This book for me linked music to life. That with it we can dream, be strong and in the end leave this world happy and content. To have music within you is a gift, to be able to share it with others is a greater gift. A lovely book that brought me to tears and in the end left me quite content."

    " A lovely book. I may have rushed the end due to book club deadline, so I didn't get the full satisfaction from the ending that I probably would have gotten if I had the time to enjoy it. It was a great book and I fell in love with so many of the great characters. "

    " Although this book seemed a bit vague at times in terms of the period of time the story took place (sometimes the story progressed rather quickly without much detail), I learned quite a bit about Indian music. Worth reading for that reason alone. "
